He said our solar system is rare; most planetary systems are more compact than ours, and many systems contain super-Earth planets. Understanding how the habitability of our solar system's inner ...

An international team, including University of Geneva researchers, discovered a super-Earth named TOI-512 b orbiting a star ...

NASA is always on the hunt for planets like our own, and recently found a new super-Earth by the name of TOI-715b. The planet is larger than our own, but it’s position and makeup mean that it ...

It consists of two planets orbiting a star similar to our Sun: K2-360 b: An ultra-short period "super-Earth" - a rocky planet larger than Earth but smaller than Neptune - about 1.6 times the size ...

"It was also a relief." This prolonged study of the star's movement also allowed scientists to determine the planet's size as six times the mass of Earth – "the larger the wobble, the greater ...

A new study presents a compelling new model for the formation of super-Earths and mini-Neptunes -- planets that are 1 to 4 times the size of Earth and among the most common in our galaxy.

Scientists have discovered a “super-Earth” planet that may have conditions suitable for life. The planet is outside our solar system and has a mass six times greater than that of Earth.

Their model explains this gap by predicting that planets smaller than 1.8 times the Earth's radius are mostly rocky super-Earths, while larger ones are water-rich mini-Neptunes, aligning closely ...
